Hi. 

 

I just recently purchased the HP Probook 450 G1.  The laptop doesn't come with any OS installed so I intalled windows 7 64-bit.  After installing all drivers I see in Device manager  screen that my Display Adapters are 

AMD Radeon HD 8600/8700 

Intel(R) HD Graphics 4600

 

but in the shop they said that my video adapter is 
AMD Radeon HD 8750M 

 

 

My question is:

 

are   AMD Radeon HD 8600/8700  and AMD Radeon HD 8750M  the same "things". 

 

 

My hardware ID :

 

PCI\VEN_1002&DEV_6600&SUBSYS_1947103C&REV_00
PCI\VEN_1002&DEV_6600&SUBSYS_1947103C
PCI\VEN_1002&DEV_6600&CC_030000
PCI\VEN_1002&DEV_6600&CC_0300

Try:

Restart system after install.

8600M, 8700M, 8500M are all different -

Your laptop is having switchable graphics - integrated Intel & discrete AMD graphics co existing.

Thanks for fast response. 

 

I've reinstalled the driver as you mentioned and there is still showing  AMD Radeon HD 8600/8700M.  

 

May be this is because the driver is the same for all models in this series 8600/8700? If yes how can I detect exact Video card model name (I mean where I can see that my video card is AMD 8750M or smth. else )?

You can software like Speccy, GPU Z etc for that I suppose. They all are Radeon graphics from AMD.
